Stranger Things Have Happened
So it's almost 3 am and I'm at my computer.
J cried in the night because he had to go to the bathroom which woke me up. He was half asleep, I think, and it was a complaint/cry combo. I thought of friends and immediately prayed for them. I turned over to try and go back to sleep but my hubby also turned around and started to snore very softly. Then I felt hot but taking off the covers made me cold. I started thinking of the dust bunnies here upstairs so I figured I'd get rid of them. On the way there, I decided to sweep the kitchen because I meant to do that early and it seemed like a good thing to do. Since that wasn't very rewarding (not as much on the floor as I thought), I decided to sweep the living room, try to somewhat declutter the breakfast counter in the kitchen and de-book the coffee table in the living room. Now I'm upstairs and tired. Hehe.
Today was so busy! Hubby got up at 6 am. He and Noah went to church to pick up sundry tables, chairs, canopies, etc. and help set up for our church's picnic and baptism. No, I couldn't fall back asleep after they got up of course.
The baptism and picnic was fun! I did spend a lot of it with J, though, because he's been on a hang-on-to-mommy kick. He tried to play with someone, but when you're four, you tend to change your mind quickly because some other more interesting though occurs to you and so back to mommy it was. I think maybe I have to approach "Why don't you play with so-and-so" a little differently because maybe he thinks I'm trying to get rid of him for a while. LOL. NM had a blast and was wet with perspiration most of the day from playing soccer, badminton, football, soccer, soccer, soccer. :)
Later on, we went home and I went shopping for a graduation present for our neighbor across the street. She had a luau dance party though, in hindsight, I don't think I heard Hawaiian music even once, but that's ok. The kids enjoyed it anyway.
Tomorrow, we hope to see Prince Caspian in the afternoon after church.

How did you manage to stay awake during the baptism and picnic? Wow.
Me thinks there's something in your blood that makes you need less sleep. EG can totally function after a night of no sleep where as I end up with a migraine. I'm praying our kids don't get that gene, but if they do: it's daddy's problem, lol.
J, I was fine during the baptism and picnic because that was the day before. You'd think I'd be tired and sleep well, but I didn't. It's ok, it only happens once in a while.
Luau party sounds like fun! Did you hula dance? ;-)
Did they play any hula music? Nope!
